Who is an Indian? How do Indians feel about American history? What kinds of futures do young Indians imagine for themselves and their tribes, and how can a non-Indian participate in and contribute to building this future? Prepare for a great ride through the vigorous discussions and debates we have about these and other topics in this perspective-expanding and critical-thinking-oriented Maymester class. Through films, readings, and class discussions, students will learn about the histories of Indian tribes and about U.S. history from the perspectives of American Indians. <strong>They will also explore tribal sovereignty, reservation life, tribal leaders, Indian education, black Indians, Indian art, Indian participation in sports, and other topics in which students express interest.<\/strong> Classes will be discussion-based. Students will be encouraged to think critically and imaginatively in a class setting that is relaxed and informal, and the instructor\u2019s primary motivational techniques will be positive reinforcement and encouragement. No prior study of American Indians is required.<\/p>\n<p>For more information, click <a href=\"http:\/\/summer.unc.edu\/courses\/summer-2013-course-listings-by-department-or-school\/anthropology\/\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ANTH 206 American Indian Societies (FOLK 230) University of North Carolina Summer 2013 Why do American Indians have casinos and reservations?
